A Microstructural Model for Flow -Induced Crystallization With Applications to the Simulation of Polymer Processes

269 p.Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2000.We suggest that our model can be used as an optimization tool for melt spinning, enabling prediction of the final fiber properties through the radial variation of the tensile stress and microstructure, as well as other polymer processes involving FIC.U of I OnlyRestricted to the U of I community idenfinitely during batch ingest of legacy ETD
